Answer:

Gabriel's horn

Explanation:

What the question is asking for is a 3-dimensional shape that has a lot of surface area and only a little volume. The first thing I thought of was a geometric figure called Gabriel's Horn. A quick search on Wikipedia will explain better than I can, but basically it has infinite surface area but finite volume. You probably couldn't test the shape in any experiment, though, since it's only theoretical and can't exist in real life.

Let me know if I can explain anything in a clearer way!

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

D) Passing of electrons from Photosystem I to electron transport chain.

Explanation:

The NADPH is generated in the thylakoid membrane first in order to energize the second stage of photosynthesis (Calvin Cycle). Calvin Cycle takes place in the stroma, so that choice is out.  Choices A, B, and C are in cellular respiration, and NADPH is not made in that process, so that leaves choice D.

Which phrase best describes osmosis? A. the process where DNA is created B. the movement of molecules through the cell membrane
kirza4 [7]

The answer is; D. The movement of water molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration

A is not correct because Osmosis does not create DNA.

B is incorrect because the movement of molecules through the cell membrane is called Passive Transport.

C is incorrect because the division process of the cell's cytoplasm is called Mitosis.

<u>Thus brings us to </u><u>D </u><u>which is the correct answer because Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from a region of low solute concentration to a more concentrated solution, up a concentration gradient.</u>
